    It’s the thread title. Vague, doesn’t describe what the conversion is.

    Huh,,,,

    Why not make it clearer for marketing purposes?

    Seems to me you’ve put a ton of effort into designing and developing your future product. I would think you’d want to spoon feed what it is to the masses.

    But, to each his own. Looking forward to your final product :thumbsup:

    The title makes people curious and want to look, isn't that why u looked to begin with?
    This is not my first product nor is it my first video, I have many products that I make although not all for Tacoma's and I do quite well with my marketing strategies but I really appreciate your concern, thx again my friend.

    Not really a concern, just some observations.

    I didn’t mean to offend or otherwise impugn your efforts.

    So this is to make a 3rd gen Tailgate fit on a 2nd gen?
    I also got your anti theft device and I think it works great definitely interested in seeing how this turns out.

    The same shit everyone else has.
    No. It’s about adding the drop assist from the new trucks to ours.
